TOPLINE: Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) enables earlier intraoperative monitoring of facial nerve activity than sevoflurane anesthesia during ear surgery, with reduced patient-ventilator dyssynchrony and fewer requirements […]

TOPLINE:  Ultrasonography-guided nerve blocks (UGNBs) performed in emergency departments are associated with a remarkably low complication rate of 0.4% across nearly 2800 procedures, with a high […]

TOPLINE: Multiple exposures to general anesthesia before age 5 years are linked to lower IQ, decreased verbal and perceptual skills, and increased behavioral issues in children. […]

TOPLINE: In children undergoing deep sedation for MRI, a propofol-ketamine combination reduced the incidence of pulmonary atelectasis, offering a more stable cardiovascular profile and faster recovery […]

TOPLINE: Thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) has a high success rate in adolescents undergoing chest wall surgery, with no long-term adverse effects and manageable complications. METHODOLOGY: Researchers […]

TOPLINE: In adults undergoing general anesthesia, the i-gel, a second generation supraglottic airway (SGA) device, is associated with fewer respiratory complications than the first generation LMA-Unique. […]

TOPLINE: The use of regional anesthesia reduces acute postoperative pain associated with noncardiac surgery. It also decreases the incidence of prolonged opioid use and chronic postoperative […]

TOPLINE: The intraoperative administration of a single dose of dexamethasone in children undergoing tonsillectomy with general anesthesia reduces the perioperative consumption of opioids without increasing the […]
